    I forgot Juan Diaz - he could end up ruling the lightweight division

    Out of the young 140 pounders I'd pick Malinaggi, Holt, or maybe Harris for this list long before the Nepocutioner. I'll be stunned if D-Hops ever cracks top 15 P4P.

    I take it no one sees Andre Ward doing much five years from now?

    Dawson is a good pick, he's got all the tools. As with any slick boxer, a rough, crude fighter could always bang him out though, you never know.

    1. Miguel Cotto - Ruling Welterweight with an iron fist. And still undefeated...

    2 Chad Dawson - Rules 175. But nobody really stands at 175 to threaten him.

    3 Celestino Caballero - King of the lower weight fighters. Will hold a victory over Rafael Marquez. With his size he will even clean out the Featherweight division.

    4 Juan Diaz - Will hold a big victory over Manny Pacman in a FOTY candidate.

    5 Manny Pacman - Losses close but legit fight to Diaz after clearing out 130

    6 Bernard Hopkins - At age 47 still going strong.

    7 Juan Manuel Lopez - KO artist at Featherweight

    8 Andre Ward - Undefeated title holder at 160. Will remind mofos of a prime Roy Jones JR.

    9 Paulie Malignaggi - Will own the 140 lb. division for years to come. Will be nicknamed 'The Italian Whitaker' for a reason :yep

    10 Ivan Calderon - Will continue to put on clinics on HBO PPV undercards until his 40s.

    cotto ya, williams and taylor, possibly. taylor i think might lose to Pavlik (Pavlik is from where i'm at so i kinda have to root for him) but Taylor really hasn't been impressing me w/ his past fights. he's gonna have to step it up to beat pavlik. williams has a good chance. i can remember some faces and fights but can't remember the names of young up and comers. if i remember i'll post back

    who are these guys at 1, 2 and 5 Kolya? I just don't follow boxing close enough to know about them....or this Linares guy people are talking about. Is that the Filipino guy?

    I would put Kessler in the lower reaches of the top 10, Diaz too...he looks really solid. Probably one of these numerous Filipino guys will be up there...Bautista perhaps. I'll stick with my top 5 though.

    I would pick guys like Juan Diaz, Cotto, Dawson, Ward and Paul Williams. Will be very interesting to see who can keep winning. Pavlik is overrated and will be exposed. He has many technical flaws. Everyone here (myself included) gets in trouble over rating fighters because of their exciting style. Pavlik will be the next Lacy. A very good fighter who can be beaten well by a top level fighter with a good gameplan.

    pbf will still be number 1 because it will still not be clear to boxing fans if he's "retired" or not

    i cant believe they think Cotto wont even be in the top ten P4P in 5 years.

    after he beats Mosley he will have a field day at 147 for the next 5 years i believe.

    Cotto,Diaz,Dawson are the 3 best names for the future of our sport.
